  Description     : high-level 3D game engine for Python

PySoy is a 3D game engine written as a Python module. It has tightly
integrated physics support (motion, collision detection, joints, etc), a
threaded render cycle for high FPS, an intuitive API, and many other
features. The project was born as a fork from fork of Soya3D and is
targeted primarily at rapid development of games.

With the most computation-heavy parts of OpenGL and Physics processing
in C, PySoy remains efficient while offering a high level object-oriented
Python API. An optimized background thread takes care of the low-level
processing leaving the main Python code free to focus on higher level
processing.

The goal is to target the video hardware available to everyday computer
users focusing on CPU-side game features and keeping  3D graphics
requirements to a minimum, thus working without problem on graphic cards
like AMD/ATI Radeon 9000, Intel i915 or nVidia geForce2.
